I think you will need to pass through the signal.

Try a different port?

I don't have much experience with VMs

Which program is it?

I don't know then - I used the VMWare tool for when I ran Win98 to test something.

If it's a USB adapter you can make a USB filter to have the adapter show up, then install the relevant driver if needed within Linux.
